Local guy wants t sell me a dw 41 mag ss w/ 2 barrels. He values it @ 800 which I think is much to high. I was thinking more like 600-50. he states it's in vg condition but I have yet to appraise it. Let me now what you think.

Just my two cents. Yes $800.00 sounds like a lot but ( there is always a but) 741's are semi rare and a second BA could bring $200.00 + by itself, so if it is in good shape that price may not be out of line. As I always say, If you want it, don't let a few dollars stand in your way unless you intend to flip it. The only gun purchases I have regretted are the ones I passed on. Others may have different opinions. You can always try and talk him down.

I believe LB is correct. If you can get it a bit lower- great but with 2 barrel assys, it's completely in line with current prices. If it's just a second barrel and not the shroud, then you may get it down a bit further.
Personally, I'd get it. If you want to trade for a blued 41, let me know. I have two...

I think a 741 would hit that price on GB with the second BA then you'll have to pay shipping and transfer fees. I would try to get him down by showing him a wad of $100's.
Let us know how it goes!

I agree with these guys...sounds like fair market value to me.
Of course, I'd hit the seller up for at least $50 less (nothing ventured-nothing gained & all that), but would be happy walking out with the gun (+accessories) at the asking price.
I know...
strikes again.
